Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

It says that there are people who hadn't heard it before it was on AI this week.

I should just be happy that they're listening to Buckley at all, huh.
